Today I will remember that all of the change I am going through is stressful and that I need to take particularly good care of myself in these recovery months or years. I will get extra rest. Inner growth at this accelerated rate is exhausting, and I need more rest and sleep than usual. I will simplify my life and make my day manageable, letting go of what does not really need to be accomplished and doing the basics. I need time to process the changes taking place inside of me, empty, quiet time just to watch the clouds float by. I will do things that feel particularly good to me whatever they are, and I will eat well and exercise. These are challenging days, so I’ll learn to be good to myself.

I fill my tank before I empty it.

Do not make yourself low; people will tread on your head.
Yiddish proverb
